Sky dishes out blockbuster free TV upgrade but you need to know three words to get it

Send Push

It's not often you get something for nothing but that's exactly what is dishing out right now. Over the Easter break, the telly firm says you can get access to 'hidden' films and shows that might help the family stay entertained. If that sounds enticing, all you need to do is grab your remote control, tap the voice button and say these three words - "Easter Egg Hunt".

This will then launch a dedicated Easter page where bonus content can be found and viewed. Some of the things already on offer include Isadora Moon, Knuckles and the Transformers One movie. More treats will be released every day, so it's worth checking back to see what's been added.

This treat is available across the whole range of Sky devices such as Sky Q, Sky Stream and Sky Glass televisions.

"To add to the Easter excitement, this year Sky is shaking things up with an Easter Egg Hunt for Sky Q, Sky Glass and Sky Stream users. From 14 April, discover a new Easter treat on your homepage each day and solve clues to track down hidden films and shows! Just say "Easter Egg Hunt" into your remote to join the hunt today," Sky confirmed in a message sent to Express.co.uk.

As Sky confirmed, this blockbuster Easter offer is running from now until April 27. There's even a bonus quiz with Sky saying that those who solve the three clues in the second rail on the screen will also unlock three mystery titles.

Sky customers aren't the only ones getting a free content boost.

- the free to watch TV service from the team at Freeview - has just announced a huge boost for viewers who don't want an aerial with "later this year".

These include two ITV channels, The Chase and Saturday Night Every Night, plus three from Channel 4, which are 4Reality, 4Homes and 4 Life.

Meanwhile, Channel 5 will provide 11 new live channels to stream: 5 GPs Behind Closed Doors, 5 Bargain Loving Brits, 5 The Yorkshire Vet, 5 History, 5 Crime, Milkshake!, 5 Police Interceptors, 5 Cops, 5 Trucking Hell, 5 A&E and 5 Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly.

"We're excited to bolster Freely's offering with eleven new live channels, including five that will be exclusive to the platform and 5," said 5's VP Distribution Kiaran Saunders.
